And pet yoga continues! Doing our practice at home brings our life into our practice and our practice into our life...they are not separate and in many ways Covid allows us to know this more deeply. Thank goodness for our pets who know what surrender is and being in the moment! Thank you Lauren and Sue for sharing how your animals want to be apart of your practice

The last day (Oct 29) in the physical studio with a surprise visit from Sondy and Sue! We will all miss the space but what makes a community is the people who participate. We continue to be grateful for our practice of Iyengar Yoga virtually at Yoga Centre London!

Here is our latest newsletter about the closing of our physical space during this challenging time, however we continue as a community of practitioners online! Click to read the full newsletter... Virtual Yoga Centre London - https://mailchi.mp//yoga-centre-london-fall-classess-25186

‘The only thing constant is change’ and while we know this in our head, our heart can sometimes lag behind. During this time of Covid, we have had to change the way we practice and adapt with our online environment. We are truly grateful to each and everyone of you who continue to practice Iyengar yoga virtually with Yoga Centre London and those of you who tried our in person studio classes this fall. It is a sad week this week as Yoga Centre London closes our physical doors ...on the ‘bricks and mortar’ space we have been in for 23 years! This is a change none of us could have anticipated just a short time ago. But as students of yoga we learn to adapt, to respond and to continue to grow with our needs and the needs of our practice. May we all continue to evolve and be supported in the challenges we face during this unprecedented time. The way forward is not always a clear one but each step taken, in as conscious a way as possible, is part of our yoga life. With much love and gratitude to all and especially for those who have passed through our doors at one time or another, Namaste Karen and the teachers at Yoga Centre London

Sometimes our animals are as active a participant in our yoga practice as we are! Here ‘King’ takes over the mat before ‘momma’ can get ready for Saturday practice! Thanks for sharing Mia!

Avalokitevara ... a bodhisattva who embodies the compassion of all Buddhas -known as Guanyin in China and also known in Japan as Kanzeon or Kannon. This particular statue was given to me from my parents after they inherited it from my great aunt when she died. When they realized I knew what it symbolized, they wanted me to have it...it makes me wonder what my great aunt understood about it’s connection to compassion in the Buddhist tradition. Was she knowingly embracing the ...meaning of Avalokitevara? Either way it is a great reminder each and every day as I see this family heirloom in my home. I am so grateful for the many manifestations of compassion and kindness from so many people recently during this pandemic and the reminder of how important our mindful response to challenges can help make the world a better place: personally and collectively.
